Round 3 Wendy's Journal - Aphorisms

Well, here I am once again and again I have changed my mind at the last minute with the journal I made. I had one near finished and decided I really wanted to keep it for myself (have you ever liked something so much that you just didn't want to part with it...lol)...so in the last couple of days, I managed to whip up another smaller journal to send on it's way around Australia.

This was the outcome...It is a manilla envelope journal with one signature that has 12 double page spreads. Background has been done with distress dabber paints and then stamped with a script stamp using stazon ink.
 This is the inside front cover which shows the definition of an aphorism. I have also done the first page with an aphorism from Hippocrates which says.." Life is short and Art long".
 Here is the inside back and as you can see it is rather plain as the inside front. I'm hoping all you lovely ladies will jot down a little info about your 'arting life' on the inside front and back covers.

I chose the theme of APHORISMS...which is a 'big' word for proverbs/sayings. I'm wanting you to feel free to do any style of background you wish on the page and place some aphorism on the page. There are millions of aphorisms out there and I'm going to love having my journal sent back with your favourite saying in it. Thank you all! Wendy xox
